Soil Survey

Our consultant was at the site of the greens today taking soil samples, we are making progress at last.  There should be a timetable for implementation soon.

Bowls Video – what a great sport for all

Check out this video produced by the Bowls Development Alliance – wish I could get my bowls to skip down to the green by themselves!

What has been happening?

Some time has passed since my last post, but there has been some progress. Mallinsons have done some initial work, but the Council has now employed PSD Agronomy to project manage the development of the greens. I hope to have a draft project plan very soon and hopefully progress will now speed up.

Progress Update

Discussions have been held with Mallinsons and the Council and plans continue to be drawn up.  We have also had a very positive meeting with the Cricket Club Committee.  Things are moving on slowly but surely!

AGM Success

Thanks to all those that turned up to the AGM.  It was a great success as we increased our membership by 40%.  We now have 28 members and we should be able to grow that significantly as we move towards getting our greens developed.  Thanks also to the Cricket Club for hosting the meeting.
